WHAT I KNOW ABOUT STEEMIT

99pyU5Ga1kwqSXWA2evTexn6YzPHotJF8R85JZsErvtTWXz4tutLYbKFZd4cuNuAn7vAtRiPRFuRGbTzBrFRJnKH5cDfdCkYbmq9oJaFLUsmDdLD11AjaFAuBTtRDZkoKc.png

Steemit is a decentralized social media platform that was created in 2016. This social media is not like the regular Facebook and Twitter; because steemit is based on a Blockchain and rewards it's users for publishing contents on the blockchain.

It is owned by a private company (Steemit Inc) that is based in the City of New York.

HOW CAN I EARN IN STEEMIT

I can earn in Steemit by;

  1. Creating Contents: and not just any kind of content, I need to create quality contents inorder for it to be upvoted.

  2. Curation Rewards: when I upvote a post, when the post finally pays out after seven days, I will get a percentage from the payout.

  3. Investment: Investment here simply means using Fiat currencies to buy steem or converting other Cryptoccurrencies to steem in order to power up into steem power.

The more steem power the more you earn from curation.

IS UPVOTE GUARANTEED?

This is a funny question because when I first was told of steemit, I thought to myself how hard can it be to have an upvote, I was like all my posts will be upvoted, but I was wrong.

So the answer to the question is NO, upvotes are never guaranteed. But to increase my chances of been upvoted, I need to make a quality content and posting in the right community also matters, I can't post about a football match in steemfood and expect my post to be curated. So if i must have followed this two steps

  1. Making of quality content

  2. Posting in the right community

SHOULD YOU STICK TO ONE COMMUNITY?

Absolutely not, Steemit has a very large collection of communities ranging from Cryptoacademy, Steemalive, campusconnectng, worldofxpilar, worldoffootball etc you just name it. So as a user, I can't just limit myself to one, if i limit myself to cryptoacademy, i can't make a post about football there, if i do, it might end up being, downvoted rather than getting an upvote.

HOW DO YOU SIGN SOMEONE UP?

After these procedures my keys wey given to me and I saved them both online and offline then proceeded to login where I inserted my posting key.

SHOULD YOU ENVY OTHERS WHO RECEIVED UPVOTES WHEN YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED?

i don't have to Envy anyone even when they received an upvote and i haven't receive. Rather i need to go and read that person's post and Learn a thing or two that will make me realize why he or she had that upvote.
And I understand that my own turn is also coming that I will get my own votes. I jus need to keep posting quality contents and not give up.

HOW CAN YOU IMPROVE IN YOUR WRITING SKILLS?

99pyU5Ga1kwqSXWA2evTexn6YzPHotJF8R85JZsErvtTWXz4tutLYbKFZd4cuNuAn7vAtRiPRFuRGbTzBrFRJnKH5cDfdCkYbmq9oJaFLUsmDdLD11AjaFAuBTtRDZkoKc.png

  1. One Method I can improve is learning, i have to read other people contents, by reading i am learning and where I don't understand i ask the author questions in the comment section.

  2. Second Method is by practicing, they say "practice makes perfect" so when i have learnt a thing or two from reading and asking questions, I can try writing my own posts and from the comments under the posts i will see how I am progressing.

  3. This last method should have come first; i should join communities that do a lot of writing, i will not want to improve my writing skills and I am active in worldofxpilar, worldofphotography or APPICS where much writing is not done.

WHAT SACRIFICES ARE YOU WILLING TO MAKE TO SUCCEED IN STEEMIT?

Well I am willing to do anything to succeed in this platform, I have already started buying steem and powering up and most of my posts are powered up.

This goes a long way to should how ready I am.

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS TOWARDS GROWING YOUR STEEM POWER?

Well I have two plans on growing my SP

  1. I plan to buy steem at the end of every month, I will buy at least five thousand naira worth of steem then power it up.
  1. I also plan to power up all my posts (this one inclusive)

  2. And also all the SDB in my wallet will be converted to steem and there after powered up.
